In foster care, children often wait. Hoping for support, they wait through their family’s time of crisis. If removed from unsafe situations, children often wait in offices or shelters because there are not enough foster homes. Children often wait to be reunited with siblings or family due to financial obstacles. They wait for stability and permanency when it is no fault of their own.
